We know that you or your child may have an e-scooter at the top of your wish list this Christmas.

Whilst many retailers are now advising the law around e-scooters at the time of buying, we also want to make sure that you know the laws before committing to a big purchase.

E-scooters are classed as motor vehicles under the Road Traffic Act 1988, which means you need to have a licence and insurance to ride one in public.

These events give us the opportunity to have meaningful conversations with communities across the route, answering questions to help people better understand our proposals before sharing feedback. Thank you to all of you that have attended, we hope you’ve found them useful.
